IL-17A rs2275913 and IL-17F rs763780 polymorphisms are significantly associated with susceptibility to RA and with different clinical characteristics of this disease.
Knowing this, the aim of this study was to investigate the association of +2199 A/C IL-23R (rs10889677), -197 G/A IL-17A (rs2275913), and +7488 A/G IL-17F (rs763780) gene polymorphisms with RA susceptibility and clinical features in a Brazilian population.
Our results indicated that IL17A rs4711998 A/G and IL17A rs8193037 G/A polymorphisms were not associated with RA, and IL17A rs2275913 G/A and IL17A rs3819024 A/G variant alleles decrease the risk of RA, while IL17A rs3819025 G/A and IL17A rs8193036 C/T variant alleles increase the risk of RA.
The aim of this study was to investigate whether the IL-17A -737 T/C (rs8193036), -444A/G (rs3819024), -197G/A (rs2275913), and -121G/A (rs8193037) SNPs conferred susceptibility to SLE (or lupus nephritis) or to RA in a Mexican population.
The present study aimed to determine the association between the polymorphic variants of the IL-17A (rs2275913), IL-17F (rs763780) and IL-23R (rs11209026) genes and RA susceptibility, progression and response to therapy with TNF-α inhibitors.
We found evidence of associations between RA and alleles from the <i>IL-17A</i> rs2275913 and <i>IL-17F</i> rs763780 polymorphisms in Caucasians (p=0.003 and p=0.037, respectively).
